This book just keeps getting sadder and sadder, and I mean that in the best way possible. King's exploration of what it means to be human has made the Vision a true "Avenger."

The philosophical musings of King are pretty apparently with the death of a certain character and the climactic fight over who or what Gotham really is. I'm in for the long hall now.
